Halal Reviews for Five Lads Goodmayes

I ordered from Five Lads Goodmayes via Uber Eats, and it was a very disappointing experience. The food arrived leaking because saucy items were packed in cardboard boxes, which clearly wasn’t suitable. To make things worse, the chicken was severely undercooked—when we pressed it between our thumbs, it was pink inside, and there was almost blood-like juice coming out of it. Despite this, the restaurant told us, “that’s how it should be,” which was shocking. When we called the restaurant to raise our concerns, the person on the phone kept giving us excuses about why the food could have been the way it was, rather than accepting what we were telling them. Even though they were closed to the public, the person answering the phone was still inside the shop and refused to come to a resolution with us. Terrible packaging, unsafe food, and very poor customer service. I wouldn’t order from here again.

Been a customer ever since they opened (five years) and they’ve never disappointed. Their recent fiery burger is genuinely one of the best burgers i’ve had. Their rice is alright, could work on the taste, make it a bit flavourful. Their full chicken is a go-to, extremely flavourful. Also, their staff is always friendly, especially the store manager, she always goes an extra mile to do more than has to be done.

I love this place especially due to the smash burger it is exquisite. The brother hussain who made the burger was extremely kind.The pair of sisters working at the front Maisha and Maryam had great customer service and amazing social skills. I saw how hardworking they were and I would come back just to receive that kind of customer service again.

Had a great experience. Food surprisingly exceeded my expectations. The smash burger was on point, wings were grilled just right and the peri chips were nice and crispy. Special thanks to Faizan for a great service.

The food here was absolutely amazing – full of flavour and perfectly cooked! What really made the experience even better was the service from Abu Junaid. He was so friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect for us. Highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back!
